In this paper we show that if $A$ is a subset of the primes with positive relative density $\delta$, then $A+A$ must have positive upper density $C_1\delta e^{-C_2(\log(1/\delta))^{2/3}(\log\log(1/\delta))^{1/3}}$ in $\mathbb{N}$. Our…

We investigate the Hasse principles for isotropy and isometry of quadratic forms over finitely generated field extensions with respect to various sets of discrete valuations. Over purely transcendental field extensions of fields that…

We prove that for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\delta>0$ there exists a word $w_n \in F_2$ of length $n^{2/3} \log(n)^{3+\delta}$ which is a law for every finite group of order at most $n$. This improves upon the main result of [A. Thom,…

In Theorem 1 of Acta Arith. 99 (2001), 321-329, Cobeli and Zaharescu give a result about the distribution of the ${\bf F}_p$-points on an affine curve. An easy corollary to their theorem is that the set $\bigcup_p \lbrace (\frac{x_1}{p},…

We define the discrete norm of a complex $m\times n$ matrix $A$ by $$ \|A\|_\Delta := \max_{0\ne\xi\in\{0,1\}^n} \frac{\|A\xi\|}{\|\xi\|}, $$ and show that $$ \frac c{\sqrt{\log h(A)+1}}\,\|A\| \le \|A\|_\Delta \le \|A\|, $$ where $c>0$ is…

Given an abelian algebraic group $A$ over a global field $F$, $\alpha \in A(F)$, and a prime $\ell$, the set of all preimages of $\alpha$ under some iterate of $[\ell]$ generates an extension of $F$ that contains all $\ell$-power torsion…

We unconditionally improve the uniformity in the Chebotarev density theorem for Galois extensions of number fields using nonabelian base change. This leads to the first theoretical improvement over Weiss's bound for the least norm of an…

We use an explicit description of the Brauer-Manin obstruction, recently obtained by Colliot-Th\'el\`ene, to study the density of varieties in a certain family which do not satisfy the Hasse principle.

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be an expansion of the ordered real additive group. When $\mathcal{R}$ is o-minimal, it is known that either $\mathcal{R}$ defines an ordered field isomorphic to $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\cdot)$ on some open subinterval…

This paper discusses sufficient conditions for a definably complete densely linearly ordered expansion of an abelian group having the uniformly locally o-minimal open cores of the first/second kind and strongly locally o-minimal open core,…

We define and investigate the property of being `exponent-critical' for a finite group. A finite group is said to be exponent-critical if its exponent is not the least common multiple of the exponents of its proper non-abelian subgroups. We…

We generalise a result of Heath-Brown and Skorobogatov to show that a certain class of varieties over a number field $k$ satisfies Weak Approximation and the Hasse Principle, provided there is no Brauer-Manin obstruction.

We give a comprehensive description of the sets $A$ in finite cyclic groups such that $|2A|<\frac94|A|$; namely, we show that any set with this property is densely contained in a (one-dimensional) coset progression. This improves earlier…

Improving upon the results of Freiman and Candela-Serra-Spiegel, we show that for a non-empty subset $A\subseteq\mathbb F_p$ with $p$ prime and $|A|<0.0045p$, (i) if $|A+A|<2.59|A|-3$ and $|A|>100$, then $A$ is contained in an arithmetic…

Let $A$ be a nonempty subset of finite abelian group $G$ of order $n$. For an integer $h \geq 2$, the restricted $h$-fold sumset $h^\wedge A$ is the set of all sums of $h$ distinct elements of $A$. It is known that if $G$ is a group of…

Malle proposed a conjecture for counting the number of $G$-extensions $L/K$ with discriminant bounded above by $X$, denoted $N(K,G;X)$, where $G$ is a fixed transitive subgroup $G\subset S_n$ and $X$ tends towards infinity. We introduce a…

We prove an elementary additive combinatorics inequality, which says that if $A$ is a subset of an Abelian group, which has, in some strong sense, large doubling, then the difference set A-A has a large subset, which has small doubling.

Every finite non-abelian group of order $n$ has a non-central element whose centralizer has order exceeding $n^{1/3}$. The proof does not rely on the classification of finite simple groups, yet it uses the Feit-Thompson theorem.

Let $\mathbb{E}$ be the HNN-extension of a group $B$ with subgroups $H$ and $K$ associated according to an isomorphism $\varphi\colon H \to K$. Suppose that $H$ and $K$ are normal in $B$ and $(H \cap K)\varphi = H \cap K$. Under these…

We provide a characterization of distal ordered abelian groups: An ordered abelian group is distal if and only if, for each prime number $p$, the sizes of ribs with respect to the "valuation" $\mathfrak{s}_p$ are uniformly bounded. This…
